EUGENE, Ore. - A known gang member and key figure in one of Eugene's most notorious murders showed up outside a bank Thursday wearing a bulletproof vest, prompting police to use a stun grenade to disorient him and take him into custody.

Beau Flynn, 34, just got out of prison in September. He was arrested in 2009 in Marion County after police found him with meth, weapons and body armor.
